We both stare at each other, saying nothing, doing nothing. The group of five vampires standing next to him must be his guards, from the way they try to protect him. They start putting themselves in front of Rogan, making sure that he's protected. Dominica did no such thing for me, there's no need. She stands right next to me and looks at them like they are nothing but mere cockroaches.

"What are you doing here?" Rogan asks.

"I could ask you the same thing. But since you're here, my guess is that you were trying to convince the siblings to join your pathetic army." I reply.

"Hmph. You say that as if I don't stand a chance. I have been gathering excellent allies."

"So I take it that they said no? I am not surprised."

"Well I am going to meet with them on a diplomatic business. So if you will excuse me." I start to walk towards his position, "Oh, and Rogan, find better henchman if you want to protect yourself." With that said, I used a spell to decapitate the group all at once. Rogan's face looks surprised. I love it when my enemies have that look. It is almost like an addiction. I cannot help but wanting to see the face of defeat, the look that makes them freeze in fear. "Now you will remember this day. The day that I spared your life." I'm not even going to take a second glance at him, he does not deserve that kind of respect.

We walk upstairs and we walk down a long hallway full of gold drapes with a red floor carpet. At the end of the hallway is a big double gold door, and before we come close enough to knock, the door swing inward. The servants were probably told to open the doors. We walk in and there sitting thirty feet from us, The ancient vampires of the world, Cairo, Solomea, and Obasi.

I bow my head to them "Ancient ones, it has been too long." I say. Dominica bows as well.

"To what do we owe the pleasure Marcus?" Cairo says.

Dominica and I stand up straight. "I am here on official business"

"And what business is that?" Solomea asks.

"I have had visions of Rogan coming here and trying to convince you of starting a war against me."

"We denied his request. Whatever feud you two have between each other is of no concern to us." Cairo replies.

"And that is what I have come here to confirm."

"What are you really doing here Marcus?" Obasi says. "You have placed a spell upon yourself and your mate so that I cannot read either of your thoughts. That is very rude of you."

"Well let's just say that it is something that I would like for you to hear it from my mouth instead of my  thoughts."

"You are King" Solomea says. "Why is it that you need our approval? My brothers and I agreed a long time ago to put you on the throne, since your maker chose you to be the heir."

"And I thank you eternally for that. But this particular topic is something that a king could do that would be considered treason."

The three of them looks puzzled. I did not want to do this, but there is no holding back what I am about to say.

"I will be releasing and telling the world that we exist and give them proof of our existence."
